WHAT HAPPENED

Tyreece John-Jules hit a first half hat-trick on Monday as we ran out 5-0 winners over Leicester City in the U-18 Premier League.

Folarin Balogun and Trae Coyle were also on the scoresheet, meaning we’re currently top of the table after leapfrogging Tottenham Hotspur.

After being knocked out of the FA Youth Cup last weekend, we made the best possible start against the Foxes, scoring in the fourth minute.

John-Jules’ lofted pass played Balogun through on goal and forced Connor Barrett into a rash foul, leaving the referee with no other choice than to brandish a red card.
